Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ: $HOOD) is trying to turn its 27.6 million funded customers into an onchain distribution advantage as Robinhood Chain moves beyond its opening burst of memecoin trading.
The Ethereum layer-2 network generated about $878 million in decentralized exchange volume on July 12, briefly overtaking Base and Ethereum. Much of that activity came from speculative tokens rather than the tokenized stocks and exchange-traded funds that anchored Robinhood's original pitch.
CASHCAT, a memecoin named after the brokerage's former mascot, reached a $156 million market capitalization during its first-week rally. That was more than 12 times larger than Robinhood Chain's $12.66 million market capitalization for tokenized real-world assets.

Capital has reached the network faster than it has been deployed. Roughly $734 million has been bridged onto Robinhood Chain, while about $211 million is active across lending pools and yield products. The difference reflects assets remaining inside wallets instead of moving deeper into decentralized finance.
Derivatives activity shows a similar gap. Robinhood Chain processed $5.9 million in perpetual futures volume on July 13, compared with $8.9 billion on Hyperliquid during the same period.
Robinhood says it is not trying to pull existing crypto traders away from established venues. Head of Product Seong Seog Lee said most consumers have never used perpetual contracts because "the on-ramps have never been there."
Users in more than 120 countries can now access gold, silver, foreign exchange and crypto perpetuals through Lighter inside Robinhood Wallet. The company is also positioning its chain for 24-hour stock token trading, onchain lending and other real-world asset products.
Early volume has shown that Robinhood can bring attention and liquidity onto its own network. The larger test is whether its familiar interface and retail reach can convert that activity into sustained use beyond memecoins.
Robinhood Markets Inc. (NASDAQ: HOOD) stock is currently trading at $99.96 U.S. per share.
